The Microplane grater originated as an excellent smoothing tool for woodworkers, which proved to be an indispensable grating tool for cooks. This version of the American-made tool quickly zests citrus fruits and grates even the hardest Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese.

Razor-sharp stainless-steel teeth allow grating in both directions – saving time and energy.

Stays sharpI have quite a few graters and this one is probably my favorite. I have had it for many years and it is still sharp. Have used it often for parmesan cheese, nutmeg, lemon rind etc. Highly recommend.

Best I have ever used.I have had this great tool for about 1 year and it is always a pleasure to use. I just used it again because I needed 4 tablespoons of citrus zest for a new recipe. I had forgotten how easy it was to use and to clean. I recommend it to all of my cooking pals.

GREAT GIFT TOOI can't say enough good things about this product! I just had to get another one because I use it everyday and mine is always in the dishwasher. I now give it to everyone in my family and have started bringing it as a gift instead of a bottle wine when invited to dinner. You can use it for all kinds citrus jesting, a little bit of carrot or other root vegetable in your salad and all kinds of cheese, just keep the cheese very cold before grating. You will wonder how you ever did without this produce. The grating gloves are great too.

Poor qualityExcept for what I considered a hard to store size (long blade and large handle), I was satisfied with this item until yesterday. I noticed as I was trying to obtain some orange zest that it wasn't producing any. Upon inspection, it appeared that the little raised knife-edge "bumps" on the top of the blade were no longer raised, but lying almost completely flat. The only area on the blade that I could get to produce orange zest was the first inch or two off the handle (an unused area on the blade). So, I was grating the orange with those first couple inches of the blade, using enough pressure to obtain zest and not pith, when suddenly the blade bends right at the handle, nearly breaking completely off. Considering that I've only used this zester 8-10 times over the past 2 years, have always hand washed it and stored it in a drawer with blade cover in place, this is an unacceptable lack of quality for this tool.
